Scott Pilgrim: The Movie....wait wrong medium.

Bioshock: Infinite



 

Around the Network

Depending on how you define flop, I don't know if I have played any that flopped undeservedly. If you just mean weak, BioShock: Infinite definitely deserved far more success than it got.

Back when in its early years I would have said Mount&Blade, which did terribly enough to be PENNY clearenced out of GameStop. But the game and franchise have grown consistently over time on PC and is now considered a noteworthy success and has spawned an enhanced pseudo-sequel (Warband), a full sequel (With Fire and Sword), inspired a sister IP (War of the Roses), and now another sequel (Mount&Blade II: Bannerlord). So yeah, once a flop now a hit.



all recent Kirby games on home console... so much fun and innovation!



Switch!!!

Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne. A masterpiece of a shooter with an amazing story...and it sold like crap. Which is why Remedy never made a MP3 and now makes exclusives for Microsoft, none of which has been successful.

Sigh..

Yeah. That's the thing with properties. The first entry does well. But for some reason, it just escapes peoples mind enough. And the sequel gets burried.

I'm gonna have to say Bayonetta. I know it's a weird choice. But the exclusive nonsense wouldn't of happened. If the game sold "enough" for the other systems.

Nier, even though saying it "flopped" would be a small exageration.



Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you are necessarily right.

Took me awhile to think of one, but the Fatal Frame games totally deserved more sales. They were such good games. It pains me that they barely got any sales... ;( I guess they were too scary for people...

Max Payne 3


such a fantastic game, big shame it didnt perform well.



It didn't flop, by definition, but PlayStation All-Stars. It's considered a failure despite being profitable simply because people labeled it as a Smash clone that sucks because it doesn't play exactly like Smash.



You should check out my YouTube channel, The Golden Bolt!  I review all types of video games, both classic and modern, and I also give short flyover reviews of the free games each month on PlayStation Plus to tell you if they're worth downloading.  After all, the games may be free, but your time is valuable!

Why i am always the only one thinking about Deadly Premonition ? :(
